Dual β-lactams for the treatment of Mycobacterium abscessus: a review of the evidence and a call to act against an antibiotic nightmare.
Mycobacterium abscessus complex is a group of rapidly growing non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), increasingly emerging as opportunistic pathogens. Current treatment options for these microorganisms are limited and associated with a high rate of treatment failure, toxicity and recurrence. In search of new therapeutic strategies, interest has grown in dual β-lactam (DBL) therapy, as research recently discovered that M. abscessus cell wall synthesis is mainly regulated by two types of enzymes (d,d-transpeptidases and l,d-transpeptidases) differently susceptible to inhibition by distinct β-lactams. In vitro studies testing several DBL combinations have shown synergy in extracellular broth cultures as well as in the intracellular setting: cefoxitin/imipenem, ceftaroline/imipenem, ceftazidime/ceftaroline and ceftazidime/imipenem. The addition of specific β-lactamase inhibitors (BLIs) targeting M. abscessus β-lactamase did not significantly enhance the activity of DBL combinations. However, in vivo data are lacking. We reviewed the literature on DBL/DBL-BLI-based therapies for M. abscessus infections to raise greater attention on this promising yet overlooked treatment option and to guide future preclinical and clinical studies.
